various institutions
The advent of various softwares has made life of an engineer easy. So it is essential
that students are taught the nuances of various softwares which would help them in
giving better shape to their ideas as also give them an added advantage in their
career prospects. With this in mind the department has taken a lead in teaching
students softwares like C, AUTO CAD, STAAD, PRIMAVERA, REVIT etc. In
addition to that training on computerized survey using TOTAL STATION is also
given which will help them to be competitive in construction industry.
Workshops
Different workshops related with curriculum are arranged during academic year to
enhance their knowledge in engineering subjects and also students are encouraged
to participate in workshops conducted by other colleges
Participation in paper presentations and technical competitions at the national
and international level
Students are encouraged to participate in paper presentations and technical
competitions at national and international levels.
Projects ( in three levels):
Students have to carry out a project at micro level (second year) where they choose
their area of interest. Micro project mainly aims at familiarizing students with
literature review and introduction to apply their class room knowledge to research.
Mini level projects (third year project) aims at exposing students to real world
scenarios of the theory they have studied in class in their area of interest. Main
level (final year) project aims at training them to find solutions to real world
problems with their technical knowledge. The development of students from
micro to mini to main project has been found to be very effective in their growth
as engineers.
e Learning: online Courses
Students are encouraged to use online materials for their courses and also to attend
additional online courses to gain knowledge and experience beyond their curriculum
Aptitude training
Graduate Aptitude Training is given to students during their 3rd and 4th years in order
to make them capable of attending all competitive exams, interviews etc. conducted
by industries and other employers.

2.2.2. Explain how modes of delivery of courses help in the attainment of the POs (10)
(Describe the different course delivery methods/modes, e . g . lectures interspersed
with discussion, asynchronous mode of interaction, group discussion, and project etc., used to
deliver the courses and justify the effectiveness of these methods for the attainment of the
POs. This may be further justified using the indirect assessment methods such as course-end
surveys.)
The courses are delivered as
Lectures :
Classroom lectures form the most basic and conventional way of disseminating information
to students. Lectures are used to convey the theoretical aspects. In these lectures students
are encouraged to think originally and are made to identify and analyze engineering
problems. Lectures are done with the aid of black board and chalk and presentations so that
the students get a clear picture of the ideas imparted to them.
Presentations:
Ideas and concepts taught during lectures are reinforced in the minds of students with the
aid of presentations, both videos as well as pictures. Videos help in making students
understand the working of complex engineering processes which would otherwise have
been impossible to demonstrate on a two- dimensional black board.
Tutorials:
Tutorials help the students in analyzing and solving engineering problems on the basis of
theory dealt with during lectures. The tutorial sessions make the concept taught during
lectures clearer to students.
Assignments
Assignments make students self- reliant in solving problems through an understanding of
theory through practice
Laboratory Experiments
Exposes the students to experimental and practical aspects of theory studied in classrooms.
They help students in verifying the theories learned by experiments through interpretation
of results. Since laboratory experiments are usually done in teams, they help develop the
spirit of working together as a team in the minds of young students
Community service programme
Students of the department are encouraged to become responsible citizens of the country by
encouraging them take part in community service programs. Community service initiatives
help them to understand real life problems faced by different strata of society and
encourage them to come up with novel and sustainable solutions for these problems
Industrial visits
Industrial visits give the students a first-hand understanding of how large-scale industries
work. Industrial visit is mandatory for all students of the department at least once in a year.
Industrial training
Students are encouraged to undergo industrial training during their semester break in any
industry of their choice. Also a report has to be submitted at the end of industrial training.
Industrial training provides an insight to students about what is happening in real world and
also supplements their class room knowledge.
Soft ware training programmes
The advent of various softwares has made life of an engineer easy. So it is essential that
students are taught the nuances of various softwares which would help them in giving
better shape to their ideas as also give them an added advantage in their career prospects.
With this in mind the department has taken a lead in teaching students softwares like C,
AUTO CAD, STAAD, PRIMAVERA, REVIT etc. In addition to that training to
computerized survey using TOTAL STATION is also given which will help them to be
competitive in construction industry
Seminars and workshops
Students are made to present a seminar during their final year. In this seminar students are
supposed to make a seminar presentation in an area of their choice by referring to various
journals of national and international repute.
Participation in paper presentations and technical competitions at the national and
international level
Students are encouraged to participate in paper presentation contests and technical
competitions at state and national levels.
Projects ( in three levels):
Students have to carry out a project at micro level (second year) where they chose their
area of interest. Micro project mainly aims at familiarizing students with literature review
and introduction to apply their class room knowledge to research. Mini level projects
(Third year project) aims at exposing students to real world scenarios of the theory they
have studied in class in their area of interest. Main level (Final year) project aims at
training them to find solutions to real world problems with their technical knowhow. The
development of students from micro to mini to main project has been found to be very
effective in their growth as engineers.
E- Learning: online Courses
Students are encouraged to use online materials of their courses and also to attend
additional online courses to gain knowledge and experience beyond their curriculum
2.2.3. Indicate the extent to which the laboratory and project course work are
contributing towards the attainment of the POs (20)
(Justify the balance between theory and practical for the attainment of POs. Justify how the
various project works (a sample of 20% best and average projects from total projects) carried
as part of the programme curriculum contribute towards the attainment of the POs.)
The programme aims at providing an all round exposure to civil engineering for
students including practical solutions and finding solution to real world engineering
problems.
The curriculum of the programme are so framed that ample number of laboratory
courses are included so that practical knowhow of students is improvised along with
theoretical knowledge. The laboratory works are also conducted in groups which
ensure development of team working skills of students. All core subjects are supported
with laboratory courses to supplement knowledge of students in that particular area.
The project course work allows the students to choose a specific area of interest and
thereafter have a better understanding in that area, and find solution to a real world
problem in that areas utilizing the technical know how they gained in class room.
Project course work makes students capable of working with deadlines and improve
their presentation and communication skills. Project work is spread over a period of
two semesters. Students select an area of their choice and do extensive literature
survey, then formulate a problem and come up with some novel, sustainable and
original idea as a solution to that problem. Regular reviewing is done and students are
assigned guides to help them in their research.
The following charts show the quantitative description of the credit distribution
among theory, practical and project course works.
2.2.4. Indicate how assessment tools used to assess the impact of delivery of course/course
content contribute towards the attainment of course outcomes/ programme outcomes

literature review and introduction to apply their class room knowledge to research.
Mini level projects (third year project) aims at exposing students to real world
scenarios of the theory they have studied in class in their area of interest. Main
level (final year) project aims at training them to find solutions to real world
problems with their technical knowhow. The development of students from
micro to mini to main project has been found to be very effective in their growth
as engineers.

7.2.1. T u tori al classes to address student questions: size of tutorial classes, hours per
subject given in timetable (5)
(Instruction: The institution may report the details of the tutorial classes that are being
conducted on various subjects and state the impact of such tutorial classes here.)
These tutorials help students secure better marks in the examinations, internal as well as
university examinations. Moreover tutorials help the students to gain confidence in their
studies
(Instruction: The institution may report the details of the mentoring system that has
been developed for the students for various purposes and also state the efficacy of such
system here
Mentoring is provided for total development of the students. Mentoring is provided after
analyzing the problems, if any, faced by each student. Mentoring helps students to get over
their difficulties with their studies (course work as well as laboratories). All students are
periodically counselled by three full-time counsellors. Career guidance is also given to the
students.
Number of Faculty mentors: 152
Number of students per mentor: 20 or less
Frequency of meeting: Minimum twice in a Semester
Each student has to fill up and maintain a Student diary with details of
parents/guardian, addresses, contact numbers and an academic history of student
marks in all public examinations and class tests in the Engineering courses. Any
personal difficulties of the student will also be discussed and the student will be
directed to professional counselors, if required. The parents shall always be
informed regarding the progress as well as problems, if any, of the students.
Mentor shall also keep a track of the academic journal prepared by the student
detailing what he/she has learnt in every period. Students’ participation in arts and
sports items and his personality and character will also be graded by the mentor
which can be viewed by the HOD and Principal. Corrective advice is given, if
necessary.
Three full time counselors are available in the college. The students are at liberty
to approach any of them for help and guidance.
It is found that the mentoring system in the College is very effective for the
development of the students.
Specify the feedback collection process: The students of each class are guided to the
Central Computing Facility as per a pre- planned schedule. The students are given 14
questions concerning the faculty who are dealing with theory papers and 9 questions for
faculty and staff dealing with Laboratories or workshops. The questionnaire is designed
to enable them to give their opinion as Excellent, Very Good, Satisfactory or Poor.
Using a computer program the score of each faculty is computed and shall be forwarded
to the Principal. The students are also allowed to write whatever comments they want to
make about the teachers which will be finally checked by Principal and HOD and
forwarded to the faculty concerned.
Percentage of students who participated: More than 90 percent.
Specify the feedback analysis process: The feedback collected from students are first
analyzed at the level of HOD and then at the level of faculty appraisal committee,
headed by the Principal. The contents of the feedback will be shared with each faculty
member individually. The feedback system works as an eye opener for the faculty.
Number of corrective actions taken in the last three years: 3 faculty members was
warned during last three years. The warning led to improvements in their
performance and quality of teaching.
(Instruction: The institution needs to specify the scope for self-learning /learning beyond
syllabus and creation of facilities for self-learning/learning beyond syllabus.)
The college believes that self-learning and learning beyond syllabus have a great scope in
the development of the career of an engineer. Everything in engineering cannot be taught in
the class room or laboratories. The explosion in knowledge related to applied science and
engineering during the last century has been so much that four years is too short a period
even to cover one branch of engineering. This fact calls for the relevance for self-learning
for young engineers. What an institution should do is to provide adequate facilities for self-
learning to students so that they get motivated to learn more and more and ultimately
become life-long learners and innovators.
Motivation for self-learning should be provided in the classrooms. A teacher has a great
role to play in this. Discussing subject beyond the syllabus, providing exposure to exciting
developments in science and technology around the globe, attempting solutions to
problems in daily life etc. are the ways to motivate students for self-learning. They should
also be motivated to do things themselves so that they gain confidence to try anything with
their own hands. An intuition should provide ample opportunities and facilities for these to
students. Amal Jyothi College of Engineering has been doing just this, as outlined below.
Amal Jyothi College of Engineering (AJCE) has provided the following facilities to
students for their self-learning and learning beyond syllabus
Infrastructure
Learning resources:
The institution supports teachers to make learning efficient. The college provides a central
library with all latest books and journals which the faculty can utilize effectively and
provide comprehensive latest information to students. Students are encouraged to use the
library independently to enhance their skills and knowledge. Apart from this college
provides seminar halls where the students can participate in group discussions, debates,
seminars etc. The institution and faculty members support and encourage every student to
make use of Internet, computers and latest technologies available to upgrade themselves in
their respective field of studies.
Student projects
Every student in AJCE does three projects during their course. Each student is assigned a
Micro project during third semester, a Mini project during fifth semester and a Main
project during seventh and eighth semesters. The students have the freedom to select
projects of their choice in consultation with teachers. Execution of these projects by
themselves goes a long way in developing independent thinking, organizing various
elements of work in the project and finding solutions to problems they face. These projects
inculcate creativity and innovative mind among students. AJCE thinks that execution of
these projects will help to transform students in to life-long learners and innovators.
1. The institution has taken keen interest to promote research culture among students.
The steps taken in this regard at the college level are listed below:
2. Constitution of a Research Committee to mentor and monitor research among
students and to inculcate a scientific and research environment in the college
3. Research project for all students are carried out in the campus itself to make them
more
4. research oriented.
5. Training programs at different levels are organized to introduce upcoming
technologies Seed money provided by the college for selected student research
projects under a scheme called Innovation Ideas Unleashed (I2U) (About a dozen I2 U
projects are supported every year). This project competition among students began in
2011.
6. Encourage research paper presentations in National and International Seminars
7. Personal mentoring and guidance by the research supervisor throughout the research
Process.
8. Scope for publishing eligible research results in the College Research journal, Amal
Jyothi Technical Report.
These activities initiated by the college for promotion of research motivate students to
think independently and go for self-learning and to learn their subjects of interest beyond
syllabus
The college has a placement cell with 3 full time staff members, including a full time
placement officer, to provide career guidance and placement training to students. The
placement cell organizes on-campus and off-campus recruitments and pre-placement
training programs in Aptitude test, Group Discussions, Interviews and presentation skills
in collaboration with the Department of Humanities and other core departments. Mock
interviews and GDs are conducted on a regular basis so as to equip final and pre-final
students to face the challenges of recruitment scenario. Close on the heels of placement
drives, the Placement Cell makes an evaluation of the performance of the students. This
objective appraisal enables the college to identify strengths and weakness of the candidates
and select strategies for improvement. Besides, there are intensive supportive measures for
low performing candidates.
Career Counseling
Career guidance and motivational lectures by Alumni, External guests and faculty are
organized frequently
The departments organize coaching classes for GATE examination. The placement cell
organizes seminars on Higher Studies and conduct aptitude training.
Foundation Course for Civil Services is offered for interested students by Amal Jyothi
Institute for Civil Services. Many books and periodicals are available in the library for the
students to prepare for these examinations.
Communicative English has been incorporated into the curriculum. The Language Lab
with a capacity of 66 consoles has been set up to compliment classroom teaching.
In addition to these, different departments conduct following add-on courses in their areas
of specialization
A Question bank, containing close to 100000 questions, has been prepared by the faculty
for the benefit of students. The students can access the question bank and practice
answering them
Accordingly, the Amal Jyothi- Eicher Center for Automobile Technology, sponsored by
VECVL, has been established in the Amal Jyothi campus. This is the first heavy-duty
Automobile training center in Kerala run by an engineering college in association with a
globally-reputed automobile manufacturer.
The skill development center will be a boon for the faculty and students to update
themselves on the latest developments in automobile technology and to have a hands-on
experience in best-of-its-class automobile technology in the world. It also offers a
wonderful opportunity for scores of unemployed youth with class 10/12 education to get
trained in automobile technology The Center will familiarize trainees in the most scientific
way of repair, maintenance and overhauling of commercial vehicles. The college has
earmarked a space of 900 m2 to the center for state-of-the-art classrooms, workshop and
library.
VECVL will train the trainers and conduct regular follow-up programs to faculty to update
them on developments in the field of automobile technology. It will also provide study
materials and training equipment for the course.
The course will be a blend of theory and practical sessions for nine months and VECVL
will provide a 3-month internship at their plant and dealerships.
Every year this center is providing financial support to number of students for developing
innovative products. Up to one lakh rupees for each idea. Apart from this financial support
we are providing the mentoring and Infrastructural support for these projects.
Also this center is arranging so many classes and camps to promote technology based
innovation and entrepreneurship among the students.
1. Our long-term goal is to create an engineering city of three hundred acres in area, owned
by the management out of which the present campus occupies fifty acres and to develop a
technological center to uplift the rural community.
2. Many of our students have shown consistent interest to get more knowledge about
entrepreneurship to be competent in the modern world.
3. Our students and teachers have been proving their talent in developing innovative
products by winning several national level project contests and getting funds for product
development from various research and development institutes around the nation.
4. There are no other centers in our district or neighboring districts for guidance in the field
of entrepreneurship.
5. The scope of rural technology development is very high because our college is located in
a rural setting with most people depending on traditional farming methods.
6. Our management and empowered faculty members are trying to provide technology
based solutions to the problems faced by the agrarian rural community and these efforts
have been streamlined through IEDC.

which does everything possible (like organizing seminars) to spread awareness about
conservation of nature.
Amal Jyothi Driving Academy
Road safety is a key concern for both Government and people on Indian roads. Safe driving
today requires a higher level of confidence, competence and maturity, given the poor traffic
planning, increasing number of vehicles, and lack of professionalism in driving and
untrained drivers on road. In a bid to address these issues, Department of Automobile
Engineering of Amal Jyothi, has launched Amal Jyothi Driving Academy, an initiative for
promoting safe driving under the guidance and full support of Motor Vehicles Department.
This Academy not just imparts better driving skills but also tries to inculcate safe driving
culture through special theoretical sessions for behavioral training and road sense. The
academy offers driving lessons to students with two vehicles available with it.
The motto of the Academy is “Smile while you drive”

Specify new facilities created during the last three years for strengthening the curriculum
and/or meeting the PO s.
Various new facilities which has been hitherto unavailable to the students have been created
for strengthening the curriculum and/or meeting the P.O’s. The important ones have been
listed below
Industrial visits
Industrial visits give the students a firsthand understanding of how big industries work.
Industrial visit is mandatory for all students of the department at least once in a year.
They are exposed to the real work involved in big infrastructural projects. Also students
are able to reinforce the knowledge which they have gained through classroom lectures
Industrial training
Students are encouraged to undergo industrial training during their semester break in
some industry of their choice. Also a report has to be submitted at the end of industrial
training. Industrial training provides an insight to students about what is happening in
the real world and also supplements their class room knowledge. Industrial training also
helps students to get practice in works in industry which will be of immense help to
them later when they join for jobs in industry after their course completion
Workshops
Different workshops related to the curriculum taught are arranged throughout academic
year to enhance students’ knowledge in engineering subjects. Eminent personalities
from industry as well as academia are invited to deliver lectures during these workshops.
Students often find these sessions to be extremely useful which is evident from their
involvement as well as their interaction with the resource persons
Students have to carry out a project at micro level (second year) where they chose their
area of interest. Micro project mainly aims at familiarizing students with nuances of
literature review and an exposure on how to apply their class room knowledge to
research. Mini level projects (third year project) aims at exposing students to real world
scenarios of the theory they have studied in class in their area of interest. Main level
(final year) project aims at training them to find solutions to real world problems with
their technical knowhow. The partaking of students in micro, mini and main project
have been found to be very effective in their growth as engineers.
Students are encouraged to use the vast repertoire of materials available online in the
relevant areas. Students are actively instructed and encouraged to refer courses of their
interest in NPTEL, MOOC’s etc
Aptitude training
Aptitude Training is given to students during their 3rd and 4th year in order to make them
capable of attending all the competitive exams, interviews conducted by industries etc.

CE010 807 Project Work
The progress in the project work is to be presented by the middle of eighth semester before
the evaluation committee. By this time, the students will be in a position to publish a paper in
international/ national journals/conferences. The EC can accept, accept with modification, and
request a resubmission.
The progress of project work is found unsatisfactory by the EC during the middle of the
eighth semester presentation, such students has to present again to the EC at the end of the
semester and if it is also found unsatisfactory an extension of the project work can be given to
the students.
Project report: To be prepared in proper format decided by the concerned department. The
report shall record all aspects of the work, highlighting all the problems faced and the
approach/method employed to solve such problems. Members of a project group shall prepare
and submit separate reports. Report of each member shall give details of the work carried out
by him/her, and only summarise other members’ work.
The student’s sessional marks for project will be out of 100, in which 60 marks will be based
on day to day performance assessed by the guide. Balance 40 marks will be awarded based on
the presentation of the project by the students before an evaluation committee.
For Project, the minimum for a pass shall be 50% of the total marks assigned to the
Project work.
CE010 808 Viva -Voce
An internal and external examiner is appointed by the University for the Conduct of viva
voce
University examination.
For Viva-voce, the minimum for a pass shall be 50% of the total marks assigned to
the Viva-voce.
Note: If a candidate has passed all examinations of B.Tech. course (at the time of publication
of results of eighth semester) except Viva-Voce in the eighth semester, a re-examination
for the Viva-Voce should be conducted within one month after the publication of results. Each
candidate should apply for this ‘Save a Semester examination’ within one week after the
publication of eighth semester results.
